Content (description)
The cushioned seat is supported on elaborate legs: up the edges are superimposed volutes with varied relief decoration in between. The base of the seat is decorated with a floral scroll pattern. Between the legs stands a footstool on which is a vase filled with flowers. Fringed drapery is laid across the seat and hangs down the sides. Some object lay above the drapery, but is now largely destroyed, perhaps a bow. The cushion is ornamented with two stars on right.
